The Leylines was founded by a group of musicians in Weston-super-Mare (via Bristol), wishing to combine their individual musical styles into something that isn’t quite folk, sort of punk, 100% heart-pounding revelry. This unique sound, combined with frontman Steve Mitchell’s lyrics centred around life on the road and the state of society, has launched the band into the heart of the live music community and made them firm favourites of the festival circuit.

The band released their debut album, ‘Along The Old Straight Track’ in June 2016, produced by Sean Lakeman, recorded at The Metway studios in Brighton and mixed by Al Scott. With this team on board, inevitably the record has drawn strong comparison to the likes of The Levellers, Mad Dog Mcrea and Ferocious Dog, whilst remaining an album by a band which have forged their own sound and identity.

Almost three years later, the band are about to release their second studio album, ‘Recover Reveal’, on 1st March 2019.

With a fiercely loyal and ever-growing fan base, The Leylines guarantee to have their audiences up on their feet – and they will be having as much fun as their audience while they’re doing it!

The Leylines aren’t exactly work-shy. In addition to their first ever national tour, the band were booked for Glastonbury Festival, where they performed six sets in as many days. They also had to temporarily leave the festival to perform in Dorset, only to return to Glastonbury and perform again the very same night! In 2017, the band have also played stages at Beautiful Days, Goldcoast Oceanfest, Something To Smile About Festival, The Godney Gathering and Big Feastival, as well as many other music festivals across the UK.

Their album ‘Along The Old Straight Track’ is available to stream on all major streaming sites.
